Summary
In partnership with the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australian Institute of Health and Welfare and Heart Foundation, we will create a whole-of-population linked data platform to inform improvements in health and heath care. We will investigate: socioeconomic variation in disease burden, to identify opportunities to improve population health; preventive cardiovascular disease (CVD) care, to improve treatment; and end-of-life care trajectories, focusing on CVD, to inform improvements in care.
